NBA 2K13 is coming out in just under a month, and they've announced a new set of 31 'Signature Skills' for this season. To view the list and description, you can go to the 2k Sports Tumblr Page. These signature skills are in addition to the traditional video game player skill rating system, as a way to make players play in a more unique way. Players are limited to 5 Signature Skills apiece.

So just because I thought it would be fun, I made a list of what I thought our players' Signature Skills should be... I promise I'm not a corporate shill (and I am writing this from Memphis, so I guess that makes me qualified to make this list ;-).

Mike Conley: Pickpocket, Active Hands
Tony Allen: Lockdown Defender, Active Hands, Hustle Points, Scrapper, Defensive Anchor
Rudy Gay: Finisher, Posterizer, Chase Down Artist
Zach Randolph: Post Proficiency, Brick Wall, Bruiser, Anti-Freeze, Closer
Marc Gasol: Post Proficiency, Post Playmaker, Break Starter, Brick Wall, Bruiser, Anti-Freeze, Charge Card

Jerryd Bayless: Finisher
Tony Wroten: ?
Josh Selby: ?
Wayne Ellington: Spot-Up Shooter
D.J. Kennedy: ?
Quincy Pondexter: Corner Specialist
Darrell Arthur: Eraser, Hustle Points, Scrapper
Marreese Speights: Charge Card
Hamed Haddadi: Brick Wall, Bruiser

I really think all 7 of those attributes apply to Mark Gasol, but the two I marked out are the two that I think least define him. Anyway, I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has an opinion (or even cares about videogames, for that matter :-).
